What happens to the body when the world is burning?
In this intimate, poetic session, artist and poet Rhea D’Souza explores how global conflict, displacement, and collective grief live in our breath, our bones, our silence.
As within, so without. As bombs fall and borders close, our bodies flinch—carrying the weight of distant wars and inherited fear.
This is not a geopolitical conversation. It is truth-telling from the inside—where poetry meets protest, and the political becomes personal.
Together, we reflect on:
- The grief that sits in the gut
- The rage that stiffens the jaw
- The ache of belonging nowhere and everywhere
- How our bodies carry the stories of displacement and longing
- The intersection of personal and collective trauma
- Finding voice through vulnerability and authentic expression
A sacred space to feel, remember, and reconnect with what the body already knows.
